    OMB No. 0990-NEW-Office of the Secretary/Office of Minority Health.
    Abstract: The Office of Minority Health (OMH) is seeking an 
approval by OMB on a new information collection, advancing the response 
to COVID-19 Learning Community Measure (hereafter COVID-19 Learning 
Community Measure). The purpose of this data collection is to gather 
quantitative and qualitative data from Learning Community members to 
monitor learning community performance in achieving process and outcome 
measures over the course of the one-year project. OMH will collect a 
set of process and outcome measures from program participants to assess 
the degree to which the learning community is effective in connecting 
subject matter experts and public health leaders, facilitating 
networking, and peer-to-peer information sharing of promising 
practices, programs, and/or policy.
    The clearance is needed to collect data to enable OMH to monitor 
and evaluate the COVID-19 Learning Community performance. The data will 
be used to report the impact of the COVID-19 Learning Community. The 
ability to monitor and evaluate performance in this manner, and to work 
towards continuous program improvement are basic functions that OMH 
must be able to accomplish in order to carry out goals for the COVID-19 
Learning Community and to ensure

    Likely Respondents: Members and staff from academia, community 
organizations, local/state/federal government, private sector, and
